Contributing to the wiki is simple; check out our [[Help:Getting Started|Getting Started]] guide to get started, the [[Help:Editing]] page for a syntax guide, or practice in your own [[Special:MyPage/Sandbox|Sandbox]] to get the hang of wikicode; or simply take a chance and edit your first article! <br />
Don't be afraid to edit any page that needs updates, fixes, or more content; we would rather that you created an article with simple, limited content and request some assistance than to create no article at all.

|text3=
First, use the search feature to confirm that there are no pages which currently cover your topic; it's always better to improve an existing article rather than create a new one if they contain similar information. If it doesn't exist, then simply Search for the exact name you want the page to have, and click the red link that appears at the top of the results.<br />
For uploading images, simply follow the [[Special:UploadWizard|Upload Wizard]] by clicking "Upload File" in the sidebar to the left

|text4=
Easy! The simplest thing to do is read through our big pages (Like [[Ships]] or [[Gameplay Mechanics]] or [[Planets]]) and see if it reads well. Is the page easy to understand? Laid out well? Are there enough or too many images? Is it linked to other important pages? Ships, especially, always need new information as more are released. <br />
Beyond small fixes, take a look through our [[Star Citizen:Tasks|Tasks]] page to see what the bigwigs are working on or check on [https://discord.gg/3kjftWK Discord] for current ongoing projects. You never know what you might be recruited into doing; but it is guaranteed* to be entertaining, fun and full of opportunities!
